Trigger.dev v3 brings long-running background jobs up to 24 hours, deploy anywhere, and a new architecture for AI agent workloads.
Reviewer scorecard
“Clean UI, open source, and supports every protocol. The git-based sync is useful for teams.”
“Long-running jobs up to 24 hours solve the AI agent execution problem. The v3 architecture is built for modern workloads.”
“Lighter than Postman and open source. For most API development needs, it's the right balance of features.”
“v3 addresses the key limitation — jobs that need to run for hours, not just seconds. Essential for AI agent tasks.”
“Functional but the UI isn't remarkable. It gets the job done without inspiring joy.”
“Long-running, durable background jobs are the infrastructure AI agents need. Trigger.dev v3 delivers exactly this.”
